Set after the events of The Dark Knight, starts out with Montoya's POV on various meetings with Batman and Gordon and she (and Bullock and Stevens) has been let in on the secret that Batman is still on their side and working with Gordon. She's trying to make sense of Batman via these interactions.
But then something happens to Gordon and the three detectives have to work with Batman a bit to make sure Jim will be okay.
And then there's fallout after that and an excellent reveal to Jim of who Batman is.
Mostly Montoya POV with some Bruce and Gordon POV.
I like seeing Montoya's perspective on things and the glimpses of the relationship between Batman and Gordon from outsider POVs as well as theirs. Love the Bruce Wayne bits too. And the reveal at the end is great.
"People need to know. I can't be the only one, in case..." he shrugged, dismissing the grim realities she was well aware of. "Come on, Detective, time to rejoin the others on the crime scene."
She hadn't asked anything more, not then, but she looked into the shadows with a little more hope now. She wasn't the only one, Stephens cornered her a week later, in the rec room, asking if she knew.
"If I know what?" she asked, putting on a good show of surprised innocence, but fooling Gerry was always more difficult than fooling anyone else at the precinct, he had a fully functional bullshit detector. Turned out that Stephens got a similar bat introduction, and so had Bullock. She couldn't help but feel proud that she was one of those few whom Gordon trusted with this knowledge. She had no idea what was the purpose, really, but it still made her feel good.
Second time she met the Bat was just a few months ago, a little less officially.
Pay no attention to this, this info is here just so I know what was here if it is ever deleted from AO3. Author omitted in case the author ever changes their name or orphans the work.

Renee Montoya has met Batman only twice, and each time it was in the comforting presence of Jim Gordon. Of course, in any case, if one subscribed to the notion that Batman was a psychotic killer, even the presence of the police commissioner wouldn't help much, but she felt better for it anyway.
